here's some no context pics that explain the vibe of this IF/WIP:
If the call to read diverse books gets you hot under the collar, I need you to lean into that discomfort a little and ask yourself the question: What would happen if I did?
First and foremost, letās make sure we are on the same page about the diverse books effort. When someone says āRead more diversely,ā what they are asking is for you to take the author into consideration when you are choosing your next read. Itās unfortunate that we live in a world where current prejudice and a long history of prejudice impact the day to day lives of minority groups, but the publishing industry is largely white, heteronormative, able bodied, and cis. We can uplift authors of color, disabled authors, and queer authors by purposefully looking for their books, especially when the publishing industry fails them time and time again.
This does not mean that you canāt read books by white, cis, straight authors. A focus is not an exclusion. All that is being asked is that alongside your normal reads, you intentionally branch out into more diverse writers.
Creating space for more diverse authors is important because people deserve to tell their own stories. Have you ever read something in your area of expertise and the author just got it so incredibly wrong? This happens with identity, too. Not only is it cringe worthy when someone outside the community gets the essence wrong, it can also be incredibly harmful by spreading destructive stereotypes. Allowing community members to tell stories about their community empowers them and helps to establish good representation in mainstream media.
Representation matters because every person deserves to see themselves well represented in a book they love. Itās so easy to feel alone, especially if you are part of a minority community. Books open up a window for us to feel more connected and to understand our identities. Itās no wonder that having positive representation has been shown to increase self-esteem.
Even if the representation isnāt your identity, itās still incredibly important. Diversity is a teacher. We live in an age of echo chambers. Itās so easy to get sequestered into our own personalized bubble on the internet. Putting yourself in a place to listen to the stories of people different from yourself is vital for connecting with others, for understanding their struggles, and for building solidarity in our communities. It will stretch you in the best of ways.
And finally, if that wasnāt enough, we should read diverse because we deserve to read excellent stories. Diverse books are brilliant. They challenge the industry, inject new life blood into publishing, keep thing fresh and exciting. Diverse books are stunning. They are well written, and fun, and capture the imagination. Diverse books keep the humanity in publishing, because humanity is millions of unique facets joined together into a whole. Why would you limit yourself to just one?
